Stacked in the Summer Sun!!

Summer is finally here in Northeastern Washington State... in the last few years I have come to doubt it's timely arrival... thankfully, my lack of patience didn't detour it in the slightest!! 

In the spirit of this wonderful season and being inspired by the fragrant and colorful blooms of the surrounding garden beds, I set out to create a work of clay art with hopes of complimenting natures own beautiful works!! 

Voila, our latest "Show & Tell" is my finished project... "Dot's Garden Totem" constructed of 15 individual components stacked on rebar & a concrete pier for stability. All separate pieces are handmade of porcelain w/ celedon glazes in complimentary colors. Embellishment on the bird is made of copper wire and glass beads. 

"Dot's Garden Totem" approximately 44 inches tall

Thanks for stopping by...  
Until next time, Happy ARTing!!
